DCR 1.1 Released

Deep Core Raider version 1.1 is now available.

This small update fixes two bugs that, in some cases, allowed you to fly though walls. It also fixes the loader and has a few small graphics updates.

You can grab it from my new website www.thespectrumshow.co.uk


Remember the new website will be the place to get all updates. This blog will become an archive for historic links.

Thanks to the folks over at World Of Spectrum for help and suggestions.

It's All New

Announcing the launch of my brand new website and my new game, Deep Core Raider. A lot of effort has gone into both projects so I hope you enjoy them both.

I will keep updating this blog, but gradually moving over to the website. There's no point in duplicating work!

There are many sites and forums that link to this blog, so I can't remove all content, but it will not be expanded with new features. That will all be on the new site now.

Update #3

Not long to go before Virgin Media close their hosting servers and all links on this blog stop working! Yes it's a nightmare, and I have been struggling over the last two weeks with something that should have only taken two days!

I'll spare you the details, but at the moment I have now completed the setup of the new hosting and transferred all the files across. I have swapped out all links to images and all game files. I have also changed the links to the magazines and type-in games.

In essence the things that will continue to work are the games, type-ins and magazines. As for the rest of it, you'll have to wait a bit.

My brand new website will soon be live and all content on this blog will be removed or at least have pointers to the new location.

The future of the blog remains uncertain. If I have a dedicated website, then why keep the blog? The only reason I can think of is to maintain historic links.

Keep wathcing...

Reminder: No video show this month! I'm taking a month off.

Series DVDs Now Available

Finally, after what has seemed like an age, Series Two DVDs are now available to buy.

They have been professionally mastered, with high quality inlays and fully printed discs. This was undertaken by a specialist company, so these are not hand made things!


Series Two is a triple disc set containing all ten episodes of the series, plus over 25 minutes of bonus material.

Series One is currently out of stock, but will be back in shortly.

More details, images and buying options can be found on the DVD page (see top right for link).

NOTE: I can only post to UK addresses.

If you would prefer to buy series one and two together, let me know and I can put up a special combined price once the sets are back in stock.

And keep watching at the end for an anniversary treat :-)
